Your "patriotic" can

I also got the same email and I'm very glad to hear

its not true. I am a child of God, and i'm not hear

to upset anybody or cause conflict with different

beliefs. but this is a comment section, and as

for living in a Country where we have the freedom

of speech I'd like to give my comment as everyone

else has had opportunity. Some believe some dont

But anytime you begin to take God out of anything

its not good, and the company,or person ect.

will not prosper in whatever their business is

or just a personal belief. now this rumor was false

so we read, But folks Heaven and Hell are real

and they are gonna be for eternity. and for all you

that dont believe well God made it YOUR CHOICE .

it up to you to choose God bless you all believers

keep the faith. unbelievers my prayer for you is

that you make God you choice.

Link target = Snopes page regarding the hoax


Apparently the soda can in question was a Dr. Pepper can, from back in
2001. It had "One nation... indivisible" on the side. And that's all
it had from the Pledge.

The can was made in November 2001, in response to the attacks of 911.


Yes, Dr. Pepper received complaints.


They stopped producing that can over seven years ago. (February
2002).

I can only hope this somewhat satisfies the letter-writer's
request...?

I'd love to see the words "under God" removed from the Pledge of
Allegiance, where it doesn't belong.

Separation of church and state and all that.

because I dislike the product and it rots my teeth. They could put
naked women on the can, and it wouldn't influence me.

I've seen naked women, and I've seen the pledge. Just because someone
modifies either one, I still know what they should look like. When I
date a woman who has "had them done," I just imagine I am with the
unadulterated product, which is what I prefer.

It looks like Bill R. has pointed you to a reliable source proving
this false.

If this were true, I would totally agree with your complaint.

That's the thing. "Under God" doesn't belong in the pledge, it was
added in the 1950s during the communism scare.

Angie L.,

I had to check a can at the local 7/11 before I responded. Same old
can there. Do you have a can as you describe?
I checked Snopes.com... http://tinyurl.com/naly7k
Could it be what you heard is part of the rumor found by snopes.com?
Stop back when you hear back?
